Holding Power Of Different Glue brands

Problem Scenario:

I don't have anything that is a problem. I didn't run into any obstacles while using my resources. None.

Broad Question:

The holding power between Commercial Bought Glue and Homemade Glue.

Specific Question:

How dose the way glue is made affect the holding power?

Hypothesis:

It is hypothesized that commercial brand glue will have more holding power than the homemade glue.

Graph of Hypothesis:

Variables:

Commercial Brand Glue. Homemade Glue. Paper. Accessory.

Independent Variable.

Holding power

Dependent Variable:

Paper, Homemade Glue and Commercial Bought Brand Blue.

Variables That Need To Be Controlled:

How much glue is used. Size of paper

Vocabulary List That Needs Explanation:

C.B.B.G= Commercial Bought Brand Glue

H.G= Homemade Glue

General Plan:

1. I will print out recipe for Homemade glue.

2. I will make the glue.

3. I will put an even amount of glue on two pieces of paper.

4. I will place a second piece of paper/material on top of the paper with glue.

5. I will wait about one hour.

6. I will then see which one falls of first

Potential Problems And Solutions:

There are no problems therefor there are no solutions.

Safety Or Environmental Concerns:

• Need to wash hands if get glue on hands

• Clean up mess carefully after experiment

• Use an accessory under experiment work space

Experimental Design

(add the correct headings from the experimental design page before beginning):

Number Of Comparison Samples:

Number Of Observation In Each Sample:

One.

When data will be collected

Saturday.

Where will data be collected?:

My house.

Data Analysis:

Commercial bought brand glue had a better/longer holding power, although homemade glue dried faster. Commercial bought brand glue has a holding power of 80. Homemade glue has a holding power of 60.

Conclusion:

The holding power

Discussion:

When i did my experiment i got glue on both pieces of paper and then i shook them both, the one with the homemade glue fell of first. I decided to do the project the way i did because i needed to determine which glue dried the fastest and its sticking power. The results were that the commercial bought brand of glue dried faster but the homemade glue held longer.

Benefit to Community and/or Science:

Will tell what glue works better, and it might even be cheaper. So it'll work better and might even be cheaper.It will help because you could have an estimate of how long the glue will hold.

Abstract:

The project that i did is on holding power between glue types. It shows which type of glue has a stronger holding power. The glues were both evenly spread across the paper that was used for this project. Then i waited one hour for the glues to dry, and then when i checked on them it turned out that the commercial bought brand glue had the strongest holding power. The commercial brad glue was the glue that had the strongest holding power.
